Hymn
Today the Savior Calls
- Writer
- Samuel Francis Smith
To-day the Savior calls;
Ye wand'rers, come;
O ye benighted souls,
Why longer roam?
Today the Savior calls;
O hear Him now;
Within these sacred walls
To Jesus bow.
Today the Savior calls;
For refuge fly;
The storm of justice falls,
And death is nigh.
The Spirit calls today,
Yield to His pow'r;
Oh, grieve Him not away,
’Tis mercy’s hour.
